During this week’s episode of SmackDown, Roman Reigns made a significant announcement regarding the position of Solo Sikoa in The Bloodline faction. Reigns referred to Sikoa as next in line to Roman’s Tribal Chief moniker and asked Jimmy Uso to join him in congratulating his successor. Although Jimmy Uso did not seem thrilled with the news, as he has more experience in the ring than Solo Sikoa, he still chose not to oppose Reigns’ decision.

The Bloodline has been dominating WWE for some time now, keeping fans engaged with the twists and turns of their story. On the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown, the faction added another layer of intrigue as Reigns declared Sikoa as his successor, much to the disappointment of Jimmy Uso. The Enforcer of the Bloodline is now also known as the ‘Tribal Heir’ of the stable. With WWE planning to secure the name with an official trademark, the title is expected to become even more cemented.
According to the latest report, the company has already filed a trademark application for a new term with the United States Patent and Trademark Office on December 15th. This new term is expected to be used by WWE in its future entertainment services and is seen as a sign that a new era in Bloodline is approaching.
